SF Centre of Perspectives & Perceptions
Ever since I was a child my family made an effort to see different perceptions of the cities we visited that were unique to what the usual tourist would experience.This gave me a different sense (Perspective) on how cities can be viewed. The program is a viewing gallery as well as a school where tourists and film & photography students can intertwine in a way that tourists get a glimpse of how students create and frame their work. Through the concept of framing that was inspired by a camera frame, user-groups gain a sense of various perspectives which allows them to construct their views both inside and outside into the city of San Francisco. The frames also encourage them to adopt another way of seeing how other people view their surroundings. Since my building aspires to help give users new perspectives and perceptions, the hope is that the use of framing throughout the building can be used as a device to allow individuals to be more accepting of one anothers ways of looking at things.

Transformation takes place and creates more concepts and ideas.
This perspective is personal to me as I am the Photographer of the image to the left. This therefore interprets my perspective and perception of the city.

PLAN VIEW OF PERSPECTIVE IDEA:
Represantation of Looking through a frame. An example would be similar to watching a movie (Spectacle) and viewing (Audience). It is framed and allows a sense of perception through spaces.

Concept Models
Frames created through two walls joined together
Main walls with frame like cut outs to distinguish between spaces. Acts as a major threshold for individuals to pass through and get a different experience. It has vairous angles of orientation to allow the frames to be located at different locations around the building.

AUDIENCE (SPECTATOR) VS PERFORMER THROUGH SPECTACLE:
The Various usergroups in the building act as the performer or spectator looking through a frame ( spectacle) to get different perspectives on how others interact and use spaces throughout the building. This allows for them to get numorous perceptions of there own.

The “L” Building
To create an effecient housing complex that is sustainable and affordabe for the community of Santa Rosa that were affected by the wildfires in 2019. The aim of the project is to house about 200 families within variations of apartment styles. The approach of the project was interesting as we started off as conceptual but transitioned into technical. The ability to acheive such progress was uniquely developed and thought-out by analyitical stages. Providing a flow through the site allows for individuals to feel invited to pass through and explore the local businesses as well as the architecture.

The site context had to deal with looking at the environment in which our transit oriented site is located. It is between the historic downtown and green spaces along the Santa Rosa Creek. The urban context around comprises of Single family residential to the north west & commercial to the South East in an Alignment.

COASTAL COOL: The coastal cool zone includes narrow band of ridge tops along the coast above 800 to 1,000 ft., the areas east of the western hills of Sebastopol, areas bounded on the north by the Russian River, and the northern and southern portions of the Valley of the Moon. Cold foggy air is diverted by Sonoma Mountain and the Santa Rosa plain in the south; western and eastern mountains contain it, and hills and distance (time) reduces its northern migration. This climatic zone averages 2,582 degree days per year, but can range from 1,900 to 3,600 depending on the year. It has 800 to 1,100

Nearby downtown Santa Rosa has numerous retail stores and places to eat which provide a consistent flow of pedestrians that circulate near our site. Our plan and mission is to connect the downtown area on 4th and 5th street through our site leading toward a connection of the Santa Rosa creek.
To follow the city grid naturally through the site to create a flow of users to and from the context of Santa Rosa. It allows for the site to be split into 3 sections that can further the idea of affordable housing.

Tiburon Visitors Center
I found it interesting on how the shadows casted onto the site, especially when we were circulating through the trees. my first pick of the site was to the right (furthest east of site) of the area where the sunrise hits the ronberg tiburon center. After began to investigate various areas of the site where both sunpath and shade hit the site, and this is where began to notice a specific area which was suitable. another idea came to mind once i noticed how steep the topography was on that specific area. the topography has various dramatic changes in its characteristics on the site, which we personally got the pleasure of experiencing when we visited during our site analysis through a walking path which went up the topography to the top (55’-60’) from ground level at 0’. so as an individual circulates from the entrance at the top of to the bottom, they would also be finding new programs situated as they were going down. being mindful of the natural environment also took part of the project as was trying to maneuver around the important aspects of the sites surroundings, such as the trees.
Parti Diagram One Concept
My parti diagram represents going with the topography in section along the slope. It also has specific framings taken as an idea from a precedent study facing specific views. The lines at the bottom represent the flow of the topography while the boxes are meant to show the building.
Parti Diagram Two
Parti diagram represented in a sort of plan view. Showing the direct line and affect it may have along the site with openings of possible circulation and penetration of light or views. Also being mindful of surroundings.
Sustainability Strategy (Nature)
This diagram shows the minding the natural habitat strategy. It represents how the trees and other natural elements around the building pinpoint views which would allow people to know how much the environment was considered.
Sustainability Strategy (Cut and Fill)
This diagram shows a balanced cut and fill strategy. It shows the trench dug out from the main site and utilized under the kayak which is partially above the water. This allows the site to be reusable in sense, instead of wasting.
Sustainability Strategy (Wind)
This diagram shows a wind sustainable strategy which allows wind to circulate from the natural environment of the topography into the building. Provinding natural ventilation, even during various times of the years seasons.
